Admissions

Enrollment Eligibility
Cornerstone Montessori Children's House is a Christian Montessori school that accepts children regardless of race, color, nationality, or religious affiliation. We try to maintain a balance of boys and girls between the age of 3 to 5.  Besides age, we also consider if the child is emotionally and mentally ready for school. Children must be toilet-trained, meaning that they do not need assistance with wiping or dressing.    

Applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis for 16 students each year. To apply, please submit an application and parent questionnaire, along with a $25 non-refundable application fee. **

These tuition amounts reflect our unusual shortened 5-month schedule which will start January 4, 2027.

Schedule and Tuition

 Monday - Thursday

8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
$2,275/year, or $460 in 5 monthly installments

 

Lunch option: 

8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.*
$2,475/year, or $500 in 5 monthly installments

*Children bring their own lunch.

Tuition is for the full school year, which is usually September through May. We follow the Hillsboro School District and usually start school in September. Appropriate adjustments are made for children who start during the year or who are withdrawn. For families with more than one child enrolled in the school, we offer a 10% discount for the second or third child.

A $200 deposit is due at the time of enrollment to hold your child's space. This deposit will be applied toward the full tuition payment or toward the last installment for the year. This deposit is refundable upon early withdrawal, provided 30 days written notice is received and all fees due have been paid. As a courtesy, tuition can be paid in monthly installments which are due on the first of each month, unless other arrangements are made.

Parents are required to provide snacks for the class two weeks each year (one week for the shortened 2026-27 school year).

 

School doors will open for children to arrive starting at 8:15.
